Chevy Chase Country Club (formerly known as Traditions at Chevy Chase Country Club) in Wheeling is one of Chicagoland's top public golf facilities. Thomas Bendelow designed the golf course in 1925. The classic layout remained largely the same until 2002 when a major renovation updated the course and made it more challenging. The layout now has deep pot bunkers lined with tall native fescue that border the generous, rolling greens and undulating fairways. Though it is more challenging than it was, the golf course still offers a player-friendly round. Four sets of tees also ensure that golfers can play to their skill level. The course finishes with its signature hole, a par 5 that features water both left and right of the landing area off the tee. Three massive bunkers and yet another pond all fiercely guard the green as well.

Course is challenging yet fun

Chevy Chase continues to be the best course for your dollar in the suburbs. The course is always in great shape and the greens are well manicured. I have played there a handful of times and will continue to do so in the future.

Totally rained out

I played on a Friday and the course was soggy because it rained for the past two days. Couldn’t take the carts off the cart cause of the rain. Then was going to play the next day and it rained heavily where you would not be able to play. They should have closed the course. I thought I would get my money back from golfnow cause of the conditions but no luck
